We are all made of multitudes - of many parts - yet at the core, we are whole and wise. Life, with its many challenges, has a way of distancing us from our core self at times! If there are any parts of you that feel broken, in conflict, stuck, confused, anxious, depressed; If doubtful, fearful, or critical thoughts or perfectionism, controlling, and people-pleasing, are interfering with your contentment and thriving in your relationships or family or work- therapy can help. In therapy, we connect to your inner wisdom, the “true you” that knows what is right for you; and we unburden you from unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

My goal for every one of my clients is peace, freedom and sanity. For over a decade, I have helped clients who suffer from depression and anxiety, relationship strife, self doubt and the deep despair that results from living in a society that worships perfection, productivity, restriction, and rigidity. My passion is working with those who suffer from a history of dieting, disordered eating, food obsession, and body hatred. The treatment I provide is Body Justice-focused, weight neutral, and anti-diet. I am an IFS-trained therapist, our work together will be warm, playful, transformative, grounding, and fun!

If you're feeling overwhelmed, scattered, unsure of yourself, or at a loss of how to process certain experiences or emotions, I'm offering a listening ear and focused attention to you. I help problem solve with my clients, and empower those who need to remember their inner strength and call upon it. I work with people in understanding their relationship to themselves and others, which can sometimes be daunting without the objective, caring understanding of another. I am passionate about issues related to religious trauma, neurodivergence, disordered eating & body image issues, anxiety & depression, and relationship difficulties.

If you are a woman ready for more happiness, more peace, & a greater sense of choice, I am here to guide you on your way. Your depression, anxiety, or relationship challenges may be signals that something greater is around the corner. If they persist, though, it’s a good time to find someone who can re-orient you so that you’re on the path of a joyful life, a life of intention, a life where empowerment and “yes!” are within reach. I work with women who feel even just a slight spark of knowing that this path might be available. We may start with mindfulness & how to cope with the effects of trauma and depression so you can thrive.

Immediate openings for online therapy. I specialize in complex trauma, phobias/anxiety, and chronic illness for adults and teens. Many of my clients are recovering from developmental trauma, learning to soothe overactive nervous systems, and hoping to identify and express their needs in a new way. My work is depth oriented, empowering, feminist, compassion focused, and client-centered. I work well with artists and creative types, perfectionists, high achievers, those who identify as highly sensitive, and those who suffer from chronic illness.

Are you feeling stuck? Do you feel anxious, depressed, or trapped in the chaos of negative thoughts, but don't know how to change? Are you unfulfilled in your relationships? These struggles may keep you awake at night, searching for a way to feel more overall peace and well being. Traumatic experiences make it difficult to break through pain and hopelessness, and may be leading you to self-destructive patterns. Your pain and emotional suffering is bearable when you share it.

I work from a body-oriented framework and am trained in IFS and EMDR for anxiety, self-esteem, and healing trauma.
You're doing it all - online yoga classes, meal-prepping, killing it at work, and making the best sourdough starter on this side of the Colorado River. But when you hit the pillow at night - there's a loneliness, a deep dissatisfaction, anxiety, a stirring discontentment. On the surface, you've got your shit together, but deep down - your life is being hijacked by your self-judgment, anxiety, negative beliefs, and the inner saboteur. Are you ready to get out of your own way so that you can finally enjoy relationships, work, and family? Your heart wants to be held and we were never meant to do this alone.

On the outside, you make success look easy, though it comes at a cost. You hide parts of yourself, which leaves you wrestling with overwhelm, anxiety, and/or self-esteem. You may even feel an internal game of tug of war. My goal is to help alleviate the pain and difficulties you've been carrying alone by providing a caring and welcoming space. Together, we will look at various parts of yourself and find what's not working, so new patterns can emerge by deepening insight and finding pragmatic solutions. I enjoy helping clients improve communication, understand emotions, and create a healthy relationship with themselves and others.

You are so tired of not feeling well, but hesitate to contact a therapist: Can I trust a stranger? Can anybody really help me? On the face of it, you function well in life, but deep inside you feel you don't actually “show up,” or you don't fully “belong.” It is as if your real authentic self is hiding, sensing that “being you” might not be safe enough. Aspects of your life story might explain why you feel uncomfortable, why you feel different than others, or why you are down or anxious. I would love to help you explore such issues in therapy, and work with you on improving your daily life experience.

You are someone who struggles with anxiety and fear, and feels stuck in certain areas of your life. Change feels overwhelming, but you can't keep living like this. You have hopes, dreams and goals, but are often confused as to why you can't reach them. Most importantly, you are open and willing to do what it takes to find healing for yourself. My clients are individuals who struggle with anxiety, life changes, and relationship issues. I also work with people in recovery from addictions who need that extra, deeper layer of discovery, and individuals whose lives have been affected by addiction.

I specialize in working with: ongoing trauma, feelings of shame, PTSD, anxiety, and depression.
We all hear that you ‘just need to love yourself more.’ Something easy to do intellectually, but very difficult in practice. How do you actually do that? I don’t have any singular answer to the question, but I can explore with you what gets in the way of loving yourself the way you want and living life as your most authentic self. My work isn’t about just eradicating symptoms, but creating a deeper understanding of what drives our symptoms, and how we have learned to adapt to trauma, overwhelm, and loss by creating strategies and patterns that might no longer serve us.

I use self-compassion training to dismantle the judgment, shame and self-blame that drive depression, anxiety and psychosis.
Healing from trauma, reclaiming power, growing from struggle and learning to work WITH emotions rather than AGAINST them are the goals I strive to support my clients in achieving. I want to help my clients move beyond simply not feeling so depressed, anxious, angry or manic. I want to help them transcend their pain, feel like they are fulfilling their purpose in life, are able to truly love themselves and are cultivating relationships that feed their soul. Narrative Therapy teaches my clients to transform the meaning of what they have been through and techniques from Existential Therapy help clients create or discover their purpose.
